Caraballe, : - |Today In History ‘NEVER MIND THE LADY = NEVER MIND THE LADY ~ NEVER MIND THE LADY - NEVER MIND THE LADY NEVER MIND THE LADY NEVER MIND THE LADY NEVER MIND THE LADY NEVER MIND THE LADY SYNOPSIS: Allaire West shot a man one night in the tropics to save the life of Terry Willett, whom she just had met. George Foz. at- taché at the American Embassy, knew about {t. But when Terry looked Allaire up ct her mother’s Washington home the meeting was not a success. And now George has returned on leave. has gone to the same home to look for the same girl and instead has found a human anake named And LaMarr lets it be known that he has dis- re’s tronical indiscre- tion, but will keep his mouth shut for $30,000. George refused to pay. Chapter 25 “IT CAME TAILS” FLIP of the coin!

Under contract. Revolution and — circumstances knocked it in the head temporarily, but I’m going back to see it through. I'd like to borrow Corrigan.” “Corrigan? One of my engineers? —oh, John Corrigan. So you need him.” “Like to have Bucky, but I don’t want him to lose his job with you.” Tyndall repressed a smile. “I don’t think losing a job ever makes much difference to Corrigan. What’s on your mind, Terry?” “Job on the Palva River. It’s a stinker and I need help.” “Corrigan will be glad to help you. And anybody else you want—” “That's all right. Corrigan and I vill see it through. I'll return him to you maybe a little dented, but a few | more deuts won’t hurt Bucky any.” He got up. “Don't rush off, Terry.” Nett laughed. . The governor said the same thing. Don’t rush off. What else is there to do? I've had enough of this country already.” Tyndall arose and came around hing! the corner of the desk. “Terry, I “I can’t beat this game ne cry to a life left: behind. Women! Strange beings, women!

For ail the power that ed through the ¢Hanmels he controlled, his faee with dts youthful smile and intent blue eyes was kindly. “So you're Terence Willett?” he haki: ands. “You and your father d me work for us down at Juarez. How is your father? I knew him well a long time ago.” Willett told him in one short sen- tence how his father was. Tyndall didn’t say anything for a moment. Then he bent forward and switched a buzzer on the call box and leff or- ders not to disturb him. He snapped he buzzer back. “Tell me about it, Terry. ever.” Tyndall shook his head slowly. “What an end for Laurie. He could have been tops here if he hadn't decided to free-lance and beat way around the world. “My father sat in this chair ahead of me and I was groomed for it from the time I could walk, but if Laurie had stuck he'd have beaten me out in spite of that. A great executive, your father. I’m awfully sorry, son.” and you can’t either!” want you to come back when you're through down there.” HE PUT a hand on the young man's shoulder. “You have a place in this engineering world among the leaders, the place your father could have had. I respected and admired Laurie, but if ever a man wasted his life and his talents, it was he. Don’t make that mistake, son—drift from engineering camp to engineering camp with no steady goal. You've got too much. I know it. “T haven't anything,” said Willett, “but a job to do. I don’t know whether I can swing it or not, but T owe it to Dad to make the try. As for your offer — thanks — maybe sometime—” They shook hands. “Wait,” said Tyndall, as Terry turned to leave. “Where is—your father?” “Carteret,” said Willett. “In Vir- ginia, near Washington.” “I'm glad it’s there. Lovely old place, isn’t it?” “I guess so,” said Terry. “Lots of trees and things. Well, good-bye, and thanks again.” Tyndall saw him leave the office with that long easy stride of his. He'd come for something, got it, and gone; nothing else seemed to mat- ter. Tyndall thought it was too bad. A lot of Lawrence Willett in that man — executive and organizing power, latent force, engineering genius probably—and need of a bal+ ance wheel. Be a shame if the only way he went to Carteret again was like his father—maybe somebody would bring him back too. Terry stopped on the way back to his hotel to invest heavily in a couple of cables. He sent one to Drake, the National Coffee Com- pany’s Propionoire agent, and the other to Bucky Corrigan. Corrigan’s whereabouts stumped him. It might be a toss-up between the Redmonte Bar and the city jail. He finally sent it in care of the | American Consul, directing him to | forward it to the Tyndall office down there. s (Copyright, 1985, by David Garth) ‘Terry gets the surprise of his life, tomorrow.
